The Apollo Lords – Shooting for the Stars? Or the Foot?
The climate debate has seen much history dragged into the present, to be served up again as hollow pastiches in environmentalists' and climate activists' shallow morality plays. Unable to make their own history, greens have to recycle moments from the past, to give...
Shock News: Guardian Pages Sponsored by Rank Hypocrisy
Two things have become clear to me over the years regarding the putative 'ethics' of the Guardian's green campaigns, copy and hacks. First, it is a general rule that 'ethics' are for thee, but not for me. Second, these 'ethics' are intended to elevate those who bear...
Identifying 'Lukewarmism'
Over at the Making Science Public blog, Brigitte Nerlich wonders about the origins of the word 'lukewarmer'... As I am interested in the emergence and spread of various labels used in the climate change debate, such as for example ‘greenhouse sceptic’, I wanted to...

Greens Whinge About Consensus
The looming UK general election has so far been a contest of the lowest possible expectations. It is a difficult election to get excited about. But one group seems to feel especially hurt at being left out of the debate, with their favourite subject having taken a...
Fortunes of Climate War
Over at Bishop Hill, Andrew Montford wonders, Is there a competition on to see who can be the most revolting climate change activist at the moment? It's a good question, and it arises out of an article posted on Business Green (an on-line news and campaigning site for...
Repealing the Climate Change Act
I have a very short piece over at the Institute of Ideas (IOI) website, outlining the reasons for repealing the Climate Change Act. It is very short, so I won't give much away here: It might be easy to imagine that scepticism towards claims that we face catastrophic...
The Peer-Reviewed Dirt on Monbiot's Dirty New Scare Story
Just when you thought climate alarmism had passed its peak... We’re treating soil like dirt. It’s a fatal mistake, as our lives depend on it Says George Monbiot in today's Guardian... War, pestilence, even climate change, are trifles by comparison. Destroy the soil...
A Decade of Lynas
Mark Lynas writes in the Guardian in the wake of the paper's new climate campaign, We must reclaim the climate change debate from the political extremes Alarmists and deniers need to climb out of their parallel trenches, engage with the developing world and work...

How the Climate Assembly manufactured consent
This stage-managed Assembly is a sham. There is no democratic mandate for extreme climate policies. As I have been pointing out for over a decade here on spiked, the political consensus on climate change is not shared by the public – or, at best, the public’s appetite...
Paris Agreement: a commitment to terminal decline
Joe Biden’s climate ambitions will wreck industry, hike energy prices and severely damage democracy. Within hours of his inauguration, Joe Biden announced that the USA was ‘back in the Paris Climate Agreement’. Donald Trump had pledged, in June 2017, that the USA...
2020: The year of climate craziness
BEFORE it even began, 2020 was already marked to be a year of climate hysteria. It was the UK’s turn to host the annual UN climate meeting, which was scheduled to take place in Glasgow earlier this month. Hence, the first eighteen months of Boris Johnson’s premiership...
Don’t swallow this BBC food fakery
MY suspicions are always raised by attempts to control what and how we eat. As I explain briefly in my video (link below), food is at the absolute centre of culture and of family and social life. Read more at The Conservative Woman...
The lie of the ‘green industrial revolution’
Boris Johnson’s plans to ban gas boilers and rely on hydrogen are beyond crazy. Following Boris Johnson’s 10-point plan to advance the UK’s ‘green industrial revolution’, the government is bringing forward its proposed ban on gas boilers in new homes from 2025 to...
How the green ‘civil society’ lie is killing off democracy
LAST month Alok Sharma, the secretary of state for business, energy and industrial strategy and COP26 president (COP26 is the annual UN Climate Conference), gave a talk to the Green Alliance which consisted of a lot of wet Westminsterese green policy fluff. Read more...
Is Johnson quite mad?
THE Prime Minister’s latest obeisance to the wind energy cult prompted me to make a short film (which follows with a transcript below) to show why it is – and there are no other words – simply mad; why none of his hubristic claims have any grounding in truth or...
Boris’s recycled eco-sop
The 10-point plan repeats the exact failures of all the green packages that came before it. Today, the prime minister announced his 10-point plan for what he claims will be ‘a green industrial revolution’. But despite the green applause and gushing, Boris Johnson’s...
America should stay out of Paris
The Paris agreement is a dangerous affront to democracy. Trump was right to challenge it. One of President Trump’s most controversial moves on the world stage was his withdrawal of the USA from the 2015 Paris climate agreement. Coincidentally, the US’s departure from...
Science is now just another wing of politics
When science so readily attaches itself to politics, policies and candidates, it loses all claim to objectivity. Earlier this month, Scientific American broke with what it claims is its 175-year history of political neutrality to endorse US presidential candidate, Joe...
